I got them to give me the .00035 to make numbers work. $1000 drive off, $240.84 + tax for 36/10K. Picking it up today. Thanks forum.

That's a great deal. Congrats!

I added 30K/36K services, and bumped from 10K to 12K miles a year for $20 more a month. Can't believe how well XT accelerates and handles and absorbs bumps. Well done Subaru.

Hi All!

Can I get the MF and residual for 36/12k on an XT Touring in Southern California.

Thanks so much!

What is the MF and residual for 36/12k and 36/15K for a XT Premium (in Chicago, which doesn't matter)?

I see you have posted the 36/10K is .00035 and 66% but not the 12 and 15K numbers for January.

Thank you!

hi there，I received this quote for 2017 forster 2.5i limited with package 23 nav+eyesight+Kardon audio+starlink. Can you analyze it for me and how's the price? I think the gross cap cost is very high which my ideal sale price for the same trim is $29k. Not sure if this request is reasonable, but there is a dealership did said he was not authorized for this discount that I have to go there to talk with their manager.(Does it mean they probably can offer me that price? Thanks

61% and .00025

I don't see the MSRP listed anywhere.

And, what is the delta to get to the $4372 total cash due - I see $2000 down and $1169 in taxes.

Not enough information here to make any sort of judgement on the deal.

And, can't help you with pricing.

What would be MF and RV for Forester Premium with package 14 for 36/15k? Thank you! Any incentives you are aware of? Thank you so much!

.00060 MF and 62% residual.

No incentives that we know of, but we see other members getting pretty strong deals. Read back a few pages.

Just wanted to update everyone on my quest with the hopes that it helps others.

I was looking to lease a 2017 Subaru Forester 2.5i Premium Package #14 (CVT, AWP, Eyesight, BSD+RCTA) for 36mo/15k miles with taxes rolled in (62% RV, 0.0006 MF, 8.625% tax). I'm in Nassau County, NY, so demand is very high. Over the course of about 4 weeks I dealt with 5 dealerships online, 3 in person. It's extremely difficult negotiating a good sales price on these vehicles in my area bc "Foresters are sold before they even reach the lot, especially the package you're looking for bc it's loaded with safety features at a solid price point" according to every salesperson I spoke with.

A few pages back, @Michaell stated that 7-8% off MSRP was very strong for a Subaru, so considering my location and the demand, I targeted 5-6% off MSRP. The MSRP including destination is $28,565 (invoice $27,648), so I was targeting a net cap cost of ~$27,000 (well under invoice, so I knew I had my work cut out for me). Pretty much from the start, the salespersons all balked at my low-ball offer, but I found 2 that were willing to work with me, and the best I could do was $27,490 net cap cost (3.76% off MSRP), or $325/month.

So that's my deal. I pulled the trigger bc I really needed this car ASAP, but I feel like I could've done better under better circumstances. A smart man once said, "buy a convertible in the winter and a truck in the summer." Hope this helps someone!

36mo/15k
RV 62% (subject to change come Feb, when they expect to get the car)
MF 0.0006 (subject to change come Feb, when they expect to get the car)
8.625% sales tax
MSRP $28,565
Sales Price $26,820
Acquisition: $595
Dealer Doc: $75
Net Cap Cost: $27,490
Monthly $325
First month and DMV fees due at signing

PS: The first dealership that quoted $325/mo over the phone reneged when I arrived at the dealership. They said they "messed up" their calculations, and the best they could offer was $347/mo. I asked to see the worksheet to confirm the RV and MF were the same I was using; they were. The problem was they didn't adjust the sales price down low enough to account for the $595+$75 fees that they "couldn't do anything about." When I said they could just lower the sales price to account for those fees and hit the correct net cap cost, they declined to do so. The best they did was $337/month, so I walked, and thankfully the second dealership honored their quote.

I want to give huge kudos to Michaell and kyfdx for all the numbers in this (and the other forums here) that I've posted on. I used their info to lease a new Forester XT Premium last night. The stealership's initial offer was $100/month more than what I calculated with the MF and residual numbers provided. The salesman couldn't explain why the payment was so high, but once I broke out my laptop with a Excel leasing spreadsheet, suddenly the price came down to the correct amount (and I was told the finance guy "made a mistake" in the calculations - ha!).

I wish you 2 guys were near me because I would totally buy you both lunch! You are both doing an awesome service to the Edmunds community and are save consumers tons of money.

I've only leased once before and was not a fan of it, but with the knowledge and numbers here on the Edmunds forums - I felt very confident and think I made a good decision to lease.

Thanks again guys!

PS I also used Costco Auto to direct me to a dealer in their network - I also highly recommend this program because the locked price was $1000 under invoice (which calculates to ~ 9% under MSRP). And for reference, I'm in Chicago area.

9.8% tax, right? Looks to be on the money.

FWIW I got nearly the same deal in New York. Package 14, no pop package. MSRP $28565, sale price $26820, net cap cost $27490 ($595 acq + $75 dealer doc fees). 8.625% taxes rolled into 36/15 came to $325/month (DMV & 1st month due at signing). Still waiting for delivery...maybe I'll ask if they have any extra cargo covers, etc. lying around

Can't help you on pricing, but read back over the last 6 weeks or so, in this discussion. There were some pretty strong Forester Touring lease deals.

NJ taxes the sum of the payments, and collects that money up front.

I'd ask the dealer for a specific breakdown of the $2000.

.00105 MF and 67% residual, assuming automatic transmission.

What is the total amount due at signing?
Did they give you the adjusted CAP cost?
What is your sales tax rate?

tgrey83

Due at signing is in the ballpark of lease payment. A few dollars over 287.

Net cap cost: $25,094

Upfront taxes listed at .45

Sales tax in the area is 6%

Transmission is automatic.

tgrey83

Looks like a "pre-delivery free" was spiking the adjusted CAP. I did some math and it looks like this should be more in the ballpark for a 2017 2.5i Subaru Forester with alloy wheels, MF of .00105, 10k/36, with .67 residual

MSRP: 25422
MF: .00105
Residual: 67%
Residual Value: 17032.74

Sale Price: 23995
Fees: 208.5
CAP cost: 24203.5
Depreciation Amount: 7170.76
Base Payment: 199.19
Interest/Rent charge: 43.3

Pre-tax Lease: 242.49

Tax: 6%

Final Cost: $257
